Hi,

I would like to have my database to open just the form by itself without the
access window in the background. I use tools-startup- and uncheck the box for
display window. but that is not what i want. I would like the database look
more interactive by only allowing the user to use to button inside the
switchboard or the form.

Any help is appreciated, thank you.

I realize this is just a suggestion, but you might consider using the code
found here to accomplish your goal:

However, heed the warnings as this procedure does have some pitfalls!

Personally, I believe the best thing to do is create custom menu
bars and toolbars. Instead of your program looking like an Access
Application, you just make it look like a *Software Application*.
